The Dynamic Life of the Mind

Every human being will, at some point, wrestle with the duplicity of their own hearts. There are times when each of us wants two things at once. We may want to do the right thing, but we may also want to do, in the very same moment, what we know to be the wrong thing.

That’s actually the nature of every temptation. In this week’s text the apostle Paul is going to tell us that the life of the mind points to our underlying, and often controlling, desires of the heart.

The question that we will explore, therefore, over the next few weeks is this, are you walking in the Spirit or the flesh? Your thoughts, actions, and desires always reveal the truth of it.
